Chapter 8 Chapter 8 The Child Bride's Stunning Transformation
The taxi arrived at the Mid-Levels Villa. Lin Keying walked into Mansion No. 5 carrying large and small bags, and her hands were almost full. She has been working for more than ten years and has never been so crazy about shopping, so she is still a little uncomfortable.
In the villa, two young servants, A Mei and A Xiang, came forward to help. However, they did not speak Mandarin and could only ask a few questions with difficulty. When they learned that Miss Lin had bought a lot of clothes, they excitedly asked her to change them and try them on.
There are many luxurious villas in the hillside villas, and every house has servants, but no servant has a more relaxed and leisurely life than the servants in house No. 5. It’s all because the owner of House No. 5, the eldest son of the Cheng family, rarely comes here.
As a result, the servants were kept in the villa day after day, doing nothing, and yet the salary they received every month was quite high, which made them feel guilty about taking the money.
It was not until Miss Lin moved in that the villa finally had guests that Ah Mei and the others became happy, and finally felt that the salaries they received were justified!
Lin Keying couldn't refuse the invitation, and she also loved the clothes, so she went back to her room and tried on the new clothes one by one.
Because of the difficult life and poor economic conditions, the clothes he was wearing were all from several years ago. They could not keep up with his height increase, and when he moved around casually, they looked short.
Either the waist, wrists or ankles are exposed.
Now that she was wearing new clothes, everyone in the villa couldn't help but be dazzled.
Mrs. Hua gave Miss Lin a thumbs up and praised her for her beauty.
Lin Keying understood this word and accepted it happily.
Privately, Mrs. Hua and Uncle Zhong saw Miss Lin's feelings for the young master, but they sighed: "Miss Lin is already a pretty girl, and now she looks even more beautiful after changing into clothes. I think she is prettier than the Miss Hong Kong on TV."
Uncle Zhong said, "Aren't there enough beautiful girls pursuing the young master? Please advise Miss Lin not to waste her time and energy on the young master."
Mrs. Hua was trying to find out the news: "I heard that the old man wants to arrange a marriage between the eldest son and the daughter of Director Li of Yihe. Is it true?"
Uncle Zhong has a closer relationship with the Cheng family. "The old man has this plan. Director Li's daughter studied abroad and came back. She studied finance and knows five or six languages. She's amazing. Her father is a director and her mother works in the Governor's government. It's best to marry into the Cheng family. I heard that Miss Li is fashionable and pretty, and she is a perfect match for the eldest young master. As for Miss Lin, she came from the mainland. At most, she is a distant relative of Young Master Chen's family in the mainland. She has no background at all, so it's naturally impossible."
"Oh." Mrs. Hua quite liked Miss Lin's personality and just kept saying it was a pity.
Lin Keying naturally had no idea that someone in the villa felt sorry for her. After changing out of her rustic and rough clothes and putting on a red and white striped tank top and denim shorts, Lin Keying was planning her return to the mainland in half a month.
After getting one million, I will go back to the capital and buy a dozen courtyard houses. After a few years, when commercial housing comes out, I will buy a few shops to collect rent, live in an apartment with an elevator, and invest here and there. Basically, I can declare my glorious retirement at the age of 20.
But now that she has nothing to do, Lin Keying asked Mrs. He about the places in Hong Kong that sell clothes wholesale, intending to go and broaden her horizons.
In the 1980s and 1990s, after the reform and opening up, the mainland was full of gold and had unlimited business opportunities. It was particularly common to trade clothing and electronic products from port cities and sell them to the mainland. As long as they were successfully transported there, it would be a profitable business.
Nowadays, there is a big gap in production between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. The clothing in Hong Kong has become fashionable, bright, and has a unique Hong Kong style. It has become popular again even after decades.
Fashion is really a cycle.
Lin Keying does not look outdated at all when she is seen wandering around the clothing stalls in Hong Kong City from the perspective of later generations. She clearly has a unique temperament.
Although the fabrics here are not as good as those in shopping malls, they are good quality and inexpensive. They are just as fashionable but much cheaper.
Clothes and pants basically cost 5 to 10 Hong Kong dollars. When shipped to mainland China for sale, the price is estimated to be dozens or hundreds of dollars, and they will still be sold out.
After all, the mainland has just started its reform and opening up, and most clothes are black, white and gray. They are simple and depressing for too long, and people have longed for this kind of brightly colored and fashionable clothing.
Lin Keying is considering whether to invest in a clothing store when she returns to the mainland soon, and use the connections she has established in Hong Kong to do business smoothly. This will be much more convenient than doing business in the dark in the mainland.
For example, Sister He and her husband are from mainland China and now live in Hong Kong. They are honest and kind, and are particularly suitable for operating in the middle links.
Thinking about business in her mind, Lin Keying picked out a few dresses and sets of clothes in the clothing stalls. Just as she was about to leave with her bags, she heard a commotion around her.
The interconnected alleys in the civilian neighborhood were cordoned off and blocked off. The older citizens either continued to eat at street stalls and drink sweet soup as if they were used to it, while the younger ones actively gossiped and tried to find out what had happened.
Lin Keying was equally curious, so she went back to Sister He's stall, only to hear that a gunfight had occurred nearby!
Sister He comforted her: "There are many gangs in Hong Kong, and they often fight on the streets. You have to be careful."
Lin Keying went to the alley entrance with the surging crowd to watch the excitement. She saw the iconic green police uniform that can only be seen in Hong Kong dramas, with a black leather belt around the waist, which made her feel familiar.
The police cordoned off the scene, but Lin Keying saw a familiar figure on the other side.
"Secretary Yang——" Lin Keying waved her hand.
When Yang Minghui saw Lin Keying again after a few days, his eyelids couldn't help but twitch again.
How come this young master's cousin's child bride is as beautiful as Miss Hong Kong!
But the most troublesome thing is the unclear relationship between her and the eldest young master.
"Ms. Lin, why are you here?" Secretary Yang's plastic Mandarin appeared again.
"I'm here to buy clothes." When Lin Keying saw Secretary Yang, she could guess that her fiancé must be nearby. "Are you and the young master here to do business? Can I meet the young master?"
Out of curiosity, and as she hadn't had the chance to meet her fiancé for several days, Lin Keying went through the motions to express her feelings. She was still thinking about her one million!
Secretary Yang would never bring outsiders with her, but Miss Lin seemed to have a different opinion in the young master's mind, and actually let her feed him, even though their relationship was unethical...
Secretary Yang was indeed hesitant about the weight of the matter.
......
If she had known that the scene before her would be like this, Lin Keying would never have asked Secretary Yang to bring her to meet her fiancé.
As I recall, every time I saw my fiancé, he was neat and tidy, dressed in a suit and tie, and had a strong aura, looking exactly like a big boss from the 1980s.
But at this moment, the man's dark grey suit and white shirt were stained with blood, and the bloodstains on his chest spread like ink, bright red.
Lin Keying blinked, her heart pounding.
Isn’t your fiancé a wealthy businessman? Could it be that he is taking the dark path?
Yes, the wealthy people in Hong Kong in the 1980s and 1990s seemed to be involved in both black and white affairs. Lam Keying's eyelashes trembled slightly. She resisted the urge to run away and carefully observed the calm atmosphere around her.
The Hong Kong City Police Superintendent was talking to the tall, blood-stained man, and there was a hint of respect in his words. The surroundings were safe and quiet, so there should be no danger.
Lin Keying made up her mind. Since she was already here, she naturally couldn't miss the opportunity. This was a good opportunity to further push the envelope and force physical contact with her injured fiancé! Annoying to the next level!
She no longer hesitated and ran towards the man in small steps.
Cheng Wanting had a secret talk with Liu Zhigao, the boss of Tianxing Real Estate today, but a third-party gangster made a move and attempted to assassinate the two of them.
The blood on his body was not his own, but the blood of others that he had gotten from a gun fight.
The solemn scene was controlled by the police superintendent and his men. Everyone was reserved and calm, except for a bright red and white color that broke in and headed straight towards him.
Cheng Wanting wanted to grab the gun reflexively, but stopped when his eyes fell on the familiar yet unfamiliar figure.
The red and white striped suspender top is short and wraps around her fair skin, revealing a large area of whiteness. Her beautiful shoulders and neck are as smooth and elegant as a swan. Her long black hair, which has been braided for a long time and is now spread out, has a natural curl, just like spread out silk. The black covers the whiteness, creating a strong visual contrast.
The half-finger-wide waist that was revealed when she raised her hand that day was now revealed to be one finger wide, and it looked white between the fashionable suspender top and sky blue jeans.
As he ran, a pair of straight and well-proportioned long legs seemed to have no end in sight, and finally stopped in front of him.
Cheng Wanting lowered his eyebrows and looked at Miss Lin in front of him, who was staring at his chest with a little horror, biting her lips lightly, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself. His hands moved in the air, and finally curled up and retracted.
Lin Keying stared at her fiancé's bloodstained shirt for a few seconds, then raised her eyes to examine his expression. He didn't look like he was injured.
I felt relieved but also a little regretful. Since I wasn't injured, I wouldn't have physical contact with him.
Her eyes moved downwards inch by inch, but her peripheral vision swept over the man's broad hands. Each finger had distinct joints, and the knuckles protruded a little harder, and his whole body was cold and hard.
At this moment, the backs of his hands, the palms and fingers were stained with blood, which was very eye-catching.
The opportunity has come!
Lin Keying murmured, "Master, are you okay?"
As she spoke, she hurriedly took out a snow-white handkerchief from her pocket, bravely and aggressively grasped the man's hand, lowered her brows and wiped the blood from his hand.
Cheng Wanting's hand was gently held by someone, and an itchy feeling passed through his fingertips like an electric current, quickly spreading to his palm and arm...
From his sight downwards, he could only see Lin Keying's black hair and curled eyelashes, her fair profile, her upturned nose, her tightly closed cherry lips, and she looked very serious as she wiped the blood for him.
And well-behaved.
